Sunday's Peninsula Breakfast Briefing
By The Editor
29th Jan 2023 | Local News
Sunday special tip:
RSPB photographer Ben Matthews shares some top advice on how to get that special snap the society's last day of its weekend birdwatch; Rather than using a standard bird bath, build a reflection pool instead. It's quite easy to set up a pool that birds will happily drink from and bathe in and that will provide you with beautiful reflections for your photographs. You could try placing a large, shallow plant tray on a table so that it's at eye level (when seated) and make it look natural by using pebbles, sticks, mosses, ferns and other natural foliage around the edge of the pool.
